I had no bubble to burst. Of course I know its money-hungry. Its still Hollywood, is it not?

Personally I think the Batman remake is an anomoly. Not only is it an amazing move forward for the franchise, but it's also the best comic hero adaptation to date. It is definitely not the norm as far as I'm concerned.

No, its certainly not the norm, but it was a source of some hope for me that franchises gone sour can be resurrected. As for best comic hero adaptation,
Batman Begins is pretty good, but its no Spider-man 2.

I love the whole Hellraiser mythos, but the movies should have stopped with 2.

Yeah,
Hellbound isn't that bad, Barker still had a hand in making it. Ebert really hates this movie though, and makes a good case for why. I agree that no more should have been made, but when producers see dollar signs, nothing can stop them.
